People think it must be wonderful being in movies or on television, but it can be very tough on a child. I had two friends in elementary school. That was it.

There must be a law against forcing children to perform at an early age. Children should have a wonderful childhood. They should not be given too much responsibility. ↗

We in the West do not refrain from childbirth because we are concerned about the population explosion or because we feel we cannot afford children, but because we do not like children. ↗
